Summary

[edit]
Description

Apollo 14 Hasselblad image from film magazine 68/MM - EVA-2.
This is Figure 3-20 of the Apollo 14 Preliminary Science Report (SP-272), which has the following caption:

Closeup view of fillet on Saddle Rock.

The text in the Report states:

The biggest of the White Rocks, Saddle Rock (fig. 3-20), is the largest block that was observed closely. The southeast side reveals extensive burial or filleting at the base with a thin coating of loose, fine, granular material extending well up onto the more gently sloping surfaces. The fine and granular materials are darker than most of the fresh rock surfaces but are slightly lighter than the dark clasts. Lineations on the dust-covered, finely fractured rock surface are not reflected in the lower fillet surface. Subangular fragments several centimeters across are abundant on the fillet surface. Some fragments are partially buried. A large, loose fragment is lying on the south slope of the block. The north side of the block, toward Cone Crater, is not exposed, but the east edge appears to drop off steeply as though the north side were steep to overhanging, and less burial or filleting is evident.
